I currently have a Panasonic dmc-fz200 bridge camera. I like the fact that it has a nice big zoom but not so much that the pic quality is not as good as those taken by dslr camera.
I mainly use a camera when travelling, I would like a camera that takes good pics which I can then print to A3 or A2 size.
Can anyone recommend a good setup for me. Is there much benefit from getting a more expensive dslr camera for example Nikon D3000 series vs D5000 series vs D7000 series camera?
Ideally I don't want to spend too much hopefully less than £500-600 for a camera and lens 300mm... but if spending more can be justified I could do.
Can anyone recommend a good setup?
Thanks in advance:)
 
The pics I take are not as detailed or good in quality as those taken by others taking pics with DSLRs at the same time. Particularly when the lights starts to fade. For example the pics taken on a Nikon d5100 of the same things at same place/time are much better than my pics.
 
Thanks, what would help in getting better quality pics, a dslr along the lines/price budget of nikon D5600 with fairly long zoom £800-900 ~?
 
Still trying to decide whether to replace the FZ200 and what to get instead. Should I buy a refurbished Panasonic FZ1000 or TZ100 (around £400 mark), new Sony RX100 (£320). I usually only use the camera when I go on holiday, so leaning towards the TZ100 or RX100, which is the better camera in terms of picture quality, low light shots?
Or I am better off going down the SLR route and get a Nikon D5600 with 18-140mm lens for example?
 
Mainly visiting cities, but i like doing landscape shots and animals too.
It is the RX100 mark 1, is it worth paying extra for later versions?
Thanks.
